I have a ship date of Feb. 18. Woo hooooooooo! I hope those Mexicans don't smuggle any dope in my truck. Well... unless they forget about a couple lbs. That could off set the lack of rebates!

I think mine is being shipped on the 18th as well... Looks like there will be some "Brothers" on the site!!

 

[RottonRob]

could it be that Dave Smith Motors is suppose to have over 500 trucks ordered that is slowing things down

Hey Tommy, does that mean that the 48RE trucks are still good to go?? Sarge

Hey Tomey did mine happen to sneek by or is it caught in the production delays?

Yeah, you are probably right-and it is missed opportunities for Dodge-Ford has 4 F series plant's to Dodge's two, so they will continue to dominate sales for the foreseeable future...

I know what you mean... . one place pretty close to me has at least 4 of 'em... . all equipped just the way I like 'em. Except they have the 48RE... .







I wonder if there is an issue with the NV-5600... or if they just plain ran out of 'em?

absolutely, i am still ordering, and the advantage is that you will have a place in line... The oldest orders will be built first when the restriction is lifted

 

[SP Diesel]

Does anyone know why the restriction has been placed on certain trucks? Maybe I missed it, thinking about ordering a 6speed in a month and this talk is making me concerned.



thanks

 

[swexlin]

Sean, is that you?? Ordering a Dodge, like me?:--)



I believe it's simply demand. I posted earlier that dealers from all over the country placed their orders in December for stock trucks, PLUS all us others ordering.

Hey Wex,



Nope its Brad borrowing Sean's username..... Once the old Ford gets sold the Dodge will be on order Oo.



Sorry to see about the decline of MAFDC even if I did not drop of the face of the planet, I guess I would of had to give up my VP seat once I owned a Dodge anyway. Hope their are no hard feelings.



..... Back to the fun... you convinved me to get a 6-Speed this time. Now there will be two 6-speed trucks with leather seats floating around



on edit: Do I see your getting an automatic :--)

 

[swexlin]

Brad -



I sent you a PM to your work address.



To all those who are thinking of ordering, I would think that it would be easier now to find something you like on a dealer's lot, or else you might waiting awhile.

 

[SP Diesel]

Does anyone know the latest on the 6spd order restriction? My order got placed tonight and I'm curious if I'll be waiting 8 weeks or a year.



thanks
